Welcome to Crime over Wine Weekly. It's Monday, September second.
I'm Heather Hawley and these are your crime headlines. Anan
Sayed is heading back to court after Maryland Supreme Court
ruled to reinstate his murder conviction in order to redo
of the hearing that freed him. The court ruled that
the previous proceeding violated the rights of the victim's family
because they weren't given enough prior notification. However, the justices
(00:27):
did not order change to Sayat's release, meaning he can
remain free until the lower court decides on the conviction.
Sayeed was convicted in two thousand of killing his high
school ex girlfriend High Manley. The case gained national attention
after being featured in the podcast serial Syed maintains his innocence.
A Las Vegas politician was sentenced to life in prison
for killing an investigative journalist. A jury found Robert Tellus
(00:50):
guilty in the twenty twenty two murder of Jeff German.

his reporting of Tellus's alleged inappropriate relationship with the female staff.
Tell Us, we'll be eligible for parole. After serving twenty
years in prison, a Florida judge s and it's Wade
Wilson to death for the twenty nineteen murders of Christine
Maultain and Dian Ruiz. The judge said the aggravating factors
(01:11):
in the case greatly outweighed the mitigating circumstances of Wilson's life. Hello. Everyone,
Welcome to another episode of Crime over Wine Weekly. This
episode is gonna be a little bit different. I'm flying
solo this week, so a little less back and forth,
if you will, because I'm not going to be having
arguments with myself in front of y'all. That's just embarrassing.
(01:33):
But we will still be talking about a wine, saving
the wine that I originally had for me and Michelle
to do, so we can still do that one together.
And I'm just gonna share one that I've had open
at home this week that I've been enjoying. If you're
a wine snob, plug your ears for a minute. You're
not gonna like this. It's the Sutter Home Family Vineyards
(01:55):
Raspberry iced tea wine cocktail. So I dec still technically
can as a wine. It's a wine cocktail, says our
Sutter Home raspberry tea. Wine cocktail delivers sweet tart raspberry
flavors by blending deliciously sweet wine, real black tea, and
natural fruit flavors. Pour over ice and enjoy a refreshing
sip of summer. So we are slowly coming to the
(02:18):
end of summer. I'm very excited for fall, for spooky season,
for cooler weather. That is my favorite time of year.
So just gonna have a quick sip of this. Yeah,
you heard me, unscrew that bottle. I will be drinking
straight from the bottle. It's one of those episodes. So
now that it's been open a few days, it's a
little more surpy than when I first opened it, but
(02:41):
it's still pretty good. Like you taste the black tea
in it, and you still have the aftertaste of a wine.
So I enjoy it. Very cheap, I think it was
like five dollars or something like that. It was a
spur of the moment purchase. I'm enjoying it and maybe
you will too. Wine snobs, you can unplag your ears
and rejoin the episode. Now we're gonna switch gears and
talk about the latest episode of Crime over Wine. It's
(03:04):
about Tina Snipes. She lived in Edisto Islands, South Carolina.
She had a daily routine that she followed religiously. That
is until August fifteenth, twenty eighteen. Tina hasn't been seen since,
and there are more questions than answers. Six years later,

five of Crime over Wine. Check it out right now
